BT and Sky broadband price battle will save you money but you need to act now


BT and Sky are battling it out for your business and that means you can save some serious money off of your broadband bills if you act fast. The two telecoms giants have both launched mega money-saving discounts with hundreds of pounds slashed off of their usual monthly pricing. And it’s not just basic speeds available at a reduced cost with Sky and BT also offering massive savings on the fastest downloads as well.

For example, Sky is currently offering its ultimate Gigafast plan for just £42 per month which is a saving of £16 off the usual price. This package will let you download a full HD movie in under 40 seconds and is over 10 times faster than the UK average. That makes it ideal for anyone in busy households full of people streaming movies, installing games and working from home. 

Other deals from Sky include its Ultrafast+ plan (500Mbps speeds) for £33 per month (saving £15) and its Ultrafast option (145Mbps) for £29 (usually £38).

Along with cutting prices, there’s no upfront fee to pay and the deals last for 18 months.

Not to be outdone, BT has also launched a bunch of discounts in a bid to entice users to its service instead.

However, instead of offering price cuts for the entire plan, BT has instead launched a sale that slashes things for the first 5 months of the deal. In fact, some plans are 50 percent less than normal during the initial period.

For example, sign up for the Full Fibre 900 option and you’ll pay £27.49 for the first 5 months rather than the usual £54.99. Opt for the firm’s Full Fibre 500 service and things will set you back just £22.49 to start with rather than splashing out £44.99.

These deals do require users to sign up for 2 months and there is a £29.99 upfront fee to pay.
